| 20090327309 | METHOD FOR PROTECTING FILES OF DIGITAL PHOTO FRAME - A method for protecting files of a digital photo frame includes an applying module of the digital photo frame detecting whether there are files in a storage system, which is accessed by the digital photo frame. If not, the applying module copies the files of the storage module to the storage system. If yes, the applying module judges whether the files of the storage module are the same as the files of the storage system. If not, the applying module copies the files of the storage module to the storage system. | 12-31-2009 |
| 20100005252 | STORAGE CONTROL SYSTEM - A storage control system includes a storage device and a UPS electrically connected to and communicating with the storage device. The storage device has a write back process and a write through process for writing data into the storage device, and includes a monitoring module. The UPS includes a control chip. The control chip of the UPS sends state signals to the storage device. The monitoring module receives the state signals and selects one of the write back process and the write through process to replace the other one of the write back process and the write through process for writing data into the storage device, depending on the state signals. | 01-07-2010 |
| 20100017440 | DIGITAL IMAGE FILE DISPLAY SYSTEM AND METHOD - A digital image file display system includes a storage device and a DPF. The storage device includes a marking module, a first sending module, and a first receiving module. The DPF includes a display module, a second sending module, and a second receiving module. The marking module assigns digital image files not previously displayed by the DPF to a list. The first sending module sends notification about the list to the DPF. The second receiving module receives the notification, and the second sending module sends a request to the storage device to display the digital image files of the list. The first receiving module receives the request, and the first sending module sends the list to the DPF. The second receiving module receives the list, and the display module displays the digital image file of the list or properties thereof. A digital image file display method is also provided. | 01-21-2010 |
| 20100037227 | METHOD FOR DIGITAL PHOTO FRAME TASK SCHEDULE - A method for executing a task schedule on a DPF is disclosed. The method includes loading a task configuration file comprising at least one task capable of being executed at any given time, reading a current time from a clock within the DPF, checking if there is the task waiting to be executed, executing the task if there exists the task waiting to be run, and repeating the reading a current time step, after a wait time, if no tasks have been scheduled for current execution. | 02-11-2010 |
| 20100318585 | METHOD FOR INSTALLING FAT FILE SYSTEM - A method for a server installing a FAT file system on at least a client computer, the method includes the following steps. The subarea basic parameters of original files and data blocks stored in the server are read by a reading module. The subarea basic parameters of original files and data blocks are received and packed to an image file by the execution module. The FAT files in sub-directories are searched by the execution module and packed to the image file. The image file is received and transmitted to a file system installing module by the receiving module. The subarea basic parameters of original files and data blocks are separated from the image file and the basic data and data blocks are calculated by the file system installing module for storing them in memory and hard disc of the client computer. | 12-16-2010 |
| 20100318638 | METHOD FOR INSTALLING EXT FILE SYSTEM - A method for installing EXT (extended) file system from a server to at least a client, the method includes the following steps. The super blocks of original files in a server are read to obtain subarea basic parameters of original files which are then packed into an image file. The reserved nodes and the first data pointing to the reserved nodes are analyzed in sequence. Whether the reserved nodes point to directory files is judged. A directory sequence is created according to the judge result. The nodes and the first data pointing to the nodes is reviewed. A client receives the image file and separates the subarea basic parameters of original files and data blocks from the image file, and calculates the basic data and data blocks for storing them in the client. | 12-16-2010 |

| 20080209032 | Alarm method for insufficient storage space of network storage system - An alarm method for insufficient storage space of a network storage system is provided. The method includes the following steps. Preset a time alarm threshold value according to a current operation state of the system when allocating storage spaces to users. Estimate a time that written data fully occupy a current remaining space according to a data writing speed to the storage space, a current idle memory of the system, total dirty data in a cache of the system, and the current remaining space in the storage space. Compare the estimated time value and the time alarm threshold value. And, send alarm information when the estimated time value is smaller than the time alarm threshold value. By setting the alarm threshold value of a time concept, a timely alarm of insufficient storage space is realized, which enhances the effective management of the storage space. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20080209122 | Method of automatically adjusting size of copy-on-write disk space of snapshot device - A method of automatically adjusting a size of a copy-on-write (COW) disk space of a snapshot device is provided. A first disk space of a snapshot device is initialized, and a COW operation is performed on a chunk of the first disk space. Next, it is determined whether a chunk sequence number of a write request is in the first disk space. Then, if the chuck sequence number of the write request is in the first disk space, the first disk space is maintained. Then, if the chuck sequence number of the write request is not in the first disk space, a second disk space is initialized, and the number of chunks of the second disk space is the same as the number of maximum successive chunks of the first disk space, and then, the COW operation is performed on the chunk of the second disk space. | 08-28-2008 |
